In the paper, the procedure adapted for testing is described and the results are discussed. The failure models and cracking patterns of the tested specimens are presented. The effects of the repeated load on the behaviour and mechanical properties of the wall are observed and discussed. Based on the results, the analytical formula for the determination of the failure envelope curve is also proposed.}, doi = {10.4467/2353737XCT.15.162.4337}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/czasopismo-techniczne/article/stress-strain-characteristics-of-brick-masonry-under-compressive-cyclic-loading} }
